Rational® Reporting for Development
Intelligence is
no longer included as an optional component with CLM. If you still
want to use Cognos® reports
with CLM, you can install ALM Cognos
Connector to connect
CLM with the Cognos Business
Intelligence server.
The ALM Cognos
Connector integrates
a stand-alone Cognos Business
Intelligence server
with a CLM server.
Before you begin
- The data warehouse must use IBM® DB2®, Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle
for its database.
- Install and configure Cognos Business
Intelligence 10.2.1
Fix Pack 2. Ensure that you install Fix Pack 2 as earlier versions are not supported
for use with the ALM Cognos
Connector.
- Deploy the Cognos application to WebSphere® Application Server.
Ensure that you follow the instructions that apply to WebSphere Application Server.
Checkpoint: Ensure that the Cognos report server is running successfully by opening the following URL
in a browser:
http://[Cognos_BI_server]:[port
number]/p2pd/servlet/dispatch, where
[Cognos_BI_server] is
the
WebSphere Application Server profile where the IBM
Cognos Business Intelligence application is
deployed.
Tip: The JAVA_HOME environment variable must point to
the version of Java™ installed with the WebSphere Application Server where the
Cognos application is deployed.
- Install ALM Cognos
Connector.
